Is there anything redeemable about Hegel?
>>9418541
His vision of philosophy being not a cage match of bitter foes but a harmonic fugue of different actors in the story of thought
His insistence that there is meaning to and a science of culture
His belief that ideas change history fundamentally
His authoritarianism
His masculinity
>>9418603
so no
>>9418611
Only non-philistines can redeem Hegelian prizes
nice dubs

I'm more into analytic philosophy and cognitive science, but Hegel is a bretty cool guys for a few reasons:
- His discussion (and to some extent, refutation) of empiricist accounts of experience and perception.
- His emphasis on historical influences on subjective understanding (phenomenological psychology) and objective knowledge (epistemology) (although he himself would dispute such subjective/objective distinction in this context)

We have little patience for pseudo-intellectual Anglos with mathematician envy on this board.

I'm an actual mathematician and I don't agree with what the person said, but you come across like one of those humanities faggots who think he's smart by looking down on scientism, when really you're just a pseud who understands nothing about science and bury a massive inferiority complex.

Hegel is to blame for this

I read that as Christophers and got sad.
Getting into dialectics is a bit like falling in love: you let yourself go for a higher good. I mean by that it's a spiritual endeavor. But then once you got it, you understand that matter is infused with spirit. By the same token, you then understand how idealistic materialism is.
Understanding dialectics is about understanding that things are in movement because sometimes things are set in stone, sometimes they mean nothing at all.
For example:
When I say that "I love relaxing after work".
What really is the case, is that:
Both not-working and not-relaxing shape my understanding of what "loving to relax" is.
Basically, negativity (in this instance: not-working and not-relaxing) supports a certain positivity (loving to relax).
Based on the history of this movement, Hegel concluded, that it's not erratic but instead has a goal. This goal is absolute knowledge, which stems from freedom. Freedom is what creates movement and knowledge allows one to capture it. Freedom pushes things forward while absolute knowledge gives meaning to it.
Contrary to what critics of Hegel say, absolute knowledge doesn't mean that freedom is over, because freedom has the upper hand; ie: it shapes the content of knowledge.

>>9421998

>>9419640
Kierkegaard liked him, what are you talking about.
